Adding a defender remains Lazio’s top priority this summer and Simone Inzaghi will have drafted a shortlist of a number of possible targets he could approach in the coming weeks.

The Lazio manager is in the market for a new defender when the transfer window reopens.

Simone Inzaghi is looking to shore up his defensive options and Nantes’s Diego Carlos happens to be a target. Inzaghi has been impressed by his performances this season and could make a move in the coming transfer window.

Lazio will be in the market for just a handful of statement signings who can improve the first-team.

According to Calciomercato (via France Football), “According to the last reports from France Football, Lazio have identified Nantes central defender Diego Carlos as one of their prime targets ahead of this summer’s transfer window. The Biancocelesti have resigned themselves to losing Stefan de Vrij once his contract expires on June 30th, with the Dutchman set to join Serie A rivals Inter for free.”
